ECOFRIENDLY MANAGEMENT OF M. INCOGNITA WITH THE COMBINATION OF PAECILOMYCES LILACINUS AND ORGANIC AMENDMENTS

An experiment was carried out for the management of root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita on mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) with the help of integrated management of Paecilomyces lilacinus fungus and organic amendments. Paecilomyces lilacinus along with dried leaf powder of Azadirachta indica Juss. and oil cake of sesame were tested for their nematicidal activity. Results of pot experiments of integrated nematode management (INM) significantly enhanced the plant growth and reduced nematode population. Biomass was increased and disease intensity was reduced by both the combinations but more effectively by Azadirachta leaf powder.
